Why are you wasting my time?

As I've been forced to listen to all of the broadcasts and hubbub about the President's speech, I'm just agape at what's happening.

First it was, "The President is going to give a big speech on immigration on Monday night."

Then it was, "Here's what the President is going to say about immigration on Monday night."

Now it is, "This is what the President said about immigration last night."

Meanwhile, I'm asking myself "Is this really the most important issue we face? Is this really where I want this president focusing his efforts?" With all that is going on in Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Venezuela, North Korea, Boliva, with healthcare, national energy policy, runaway Federal spending, is this really all he's got? "Teeming hordes" of brown people jumping fences, scurrying through the mountains, swimming the Rio Grande?

Like many people, I have long been concerned about the illegal immigration problem and the national and economic security issues related to it. I have lived in three of the four states which comprise our frontier with Mexico. I'm well aware of the impacts of illegal immigration. Have been for years. So what's suddenly driving this? A Spanish national anthem? Some big rallies?

It's how far his presidency has sunk that this is literally all he's got left. It's a long way to 2008.
